* Kubeadm now includes CoreDNS version 1.6.5 ([#85108](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85108), [@rajansandeep](https://github.com/rajansandeep))
    *  - `kubernetes` plugin adds metrics to measure kubernetes control plane latency.
    *  -  the `health` plugin now includes the `lameduck` option by default, which waits for a duration before shutting down.

API group): The Horizontal Pod Autoscaling feature now supports custom metrics
(Alpha), allowing you to specify application-level metrics and thresholds to
trigger scaling up and down the number of pods in your application.
  * <strong>New GUI</strong> (dashboard) allows you to get started quickly and enables the same
functionality found in the CLI as a more approachable and discoverable way of

but only worthwhile if it's likely the instruction will be used again.
Instead, for simple one-off cases, it's possible to use the <code>BYTE</code>
and <code>WORD</code> directives
to lay down explicit data into the instruction stream within a <code>TEXT</code>.
Here's how the 386 runtime defines the 64-bit atomic load function.
